M'amuse
So much time, so little to do! I’ll give you guys a cookie if you can tell me where that’s from. One of my all time literary muses. The reason I bring it him up is that’s what I was reading before bed last night. And for some reason ridiculous little baubles such as the ones I am wearing today remind me of his stories.
Although I sincerely believe that “conversation piece” is a bit cliché, that’s without fail what these two necklaces start. Especially on the subway. The best way to pique any sort of person’s curiosity is to wear some sort of shiny contraption round your neck.
Exhibit A: Antique quarter holder made by one of my favorite people, Snoozer Loser. This thing holds $2 in change!
Exhibit B: Museum bit of curio that I indulgently purchased at the Met the first time I visited New York by myself.
Strike that, reverse it. xx.wasabipear
***Today’s Outfit: LBD worn properly. Phenomenal coat with tag that says “Made in Brooklyn” from Salvation Army. Boots for days.

Such an incredible jacket! And those boots are an awesome color. Good work!

totally wearable, this one wouldn’t be out of place for work, but with panache that leaves the regular department store work clothes for dead.

I love the cozy colors and the drape of the jacket and the super hot boots. I agree that the styling of the shoulders and hips of the dress is really satisfying. I could never wear pockets like that on my hips, but they look great on you!

Ha! I would have guessed Oscar Wilde! Your jacket is indeed stunning and I love the lines of your LBD. I would rock those pockets till the cows came home.

Those boots are rockin! I love the color! To me, this is the most wearable of what you’ve worn so far… I love it and so would Lisa Turtle.
